CGiii Comment

Although Ney Matogrosso has become a popular phenomenon, only now it was portrayed in a film which synthesizes its rich contribution for the Brazilian and Queer culture. Joel Pizzini uses the archives of Ney Matogrosso, images and sounds, to reveal the simple man and the complete artist. One of the boldest figures of the Brazilian culture, whom at his 35 years career as singer, was defined by Chico Buarque as the greatest “showman” of Brazil.


La vida y obra de Ney Matogrosso, retratada a partir de un conjunto de imágenes y sonidos que el artista conservó hasta hoy en su casa y existentes en los archivos públicos, en contraste con las performances actuales. En un espectáculo sobre la carrera musical de Ney, la película evoca su historia sea en el escenario como en la vida cotidiana. Sin nostalgia y reverencia, “Olho Nu” (título traducible como ‘Ojo desnudo’ o ‘A simple vista’) revela el hombre detrás del personaje, indagando las motivaciones de su arte, el pensamiento crítico y el carácter político libertario que permea su repertorio, siempre guiados por la coherencia y la calidad estética.
